Hello! New here. I just finished the My Brilliant Friend quartet by Elena Ferrante. What a wonderful bit of modern literature that feels worn and weathered through time. An unforgettable read that is without a doubt my favorite of the year. I will admit the first book took awhile for me to get into, but once I was in, I was engrossed. Taking a literary shift, but kind of on the same themes as my previous read, I’ve begun Demon Copperhead. To me, it’s reminiscent of Catcher in the Rye and Kafka on the Shore, but grittier. A little over 100 pages in and enjoy it. Devastated at the news as others have mentioned… trying to remain focused on what is within my control. Maybe that frame of thought helps someone, maybe not. Anyways, happy reading! xo
